Congrats to MS! I was about to say that this gen is alive and well but last month wasn't as great sales wise overall for anyone in numbers. It must be the Pre-blackfriday slump.
Nonetheless, I'm glad to see that sales matter again to a lot of the people who consistently complain about them (:
That's cool! I forgot it opens the 12th.
Can't wait to play this years best shooter(: and it sounds like you're excited to spend time on it too.
@Septic
Inside and out! It's that hilarious (:
I find it funny how they use the hashtag "PlayItFirst" but everyone already played it :D
Other than that, it's clever but out of taste IMO.
What's hilarious is that when they came out and pretty much since then the PS4 had the faster UI. Yet all we'd hear when that was brought up was *caveman voice* "It doesn't matter how fast UI is". "Can you watch TV and play games at the same time?" "Well my controller uses batteries including the one I paid $150 for".
That was the majority of how they'd respond. Not all of them, but the majority.
The new UI is s...
How does Sony not utilize the HD screen? Even if it is useful, you don't need a side bar to complete the same tasks.
And yes...I'm sure Sony is the one thinking everyone has sub-HD TVs. That couldn't be MS at all this gen. /s
Haha if only we'd hear that tune from you when comparing graphical fidelity. I mean it is two competing platforms with different graphics tested on the same game. Isn't that how you just stated it right now for this?
That's cool!
I bet the 9+ million people who played it early in October during the beta gave plenty of feedback for them to tweak it a bit before launch. I'm sure we'll get more details and video on maps and content now since they'll be streaming it next week.
Decent comments man. I appreciate them and not complete opposition to them. An open mind is an intelligent mind.
In regards to Greenberg, he is no Phil. This guy comes off way too strong from time to time. Especially when he jumps between his opinions.
Honestly, I've been on the fence lately about getting an Xbox since my buddy got one this week. But I'm holding off for those HUGE Black Friday discounts. I know they're coming and I need to see if it'll...
"There's no chance of there ever being a civil discussion about sales because noone has the capacity to restrain their bias and withhold their rage."
It's not that lol it's the fact that people don't like to hear facts and only say sales matter when their console actually gets recognition for it. The fact is that the console with the most sales usually gets the most support.
"Greenberg: If you’re buying a console for games, you’re buying an Xbox. Xbox is the platform with the most games, the most exclusives, and probably the most anticipated game of the year in Halo 5."
Little white lies like this is all PR. There's no factual basis on either of those comments. If you want the truth, it's not that. His spin before the holiday has been something else lol I've never been a fan of this guy. The other Xbox execs actually know wh...
Trolling?
It prevents people from playing the game man. It's not like they can play the game if it takes so long downloading. And it's only affecting Halo 5.
A lot of bad news has come out about Halo 5 just in the last day, hope they can make some 180's (Remove microtransactions from MP) and show us that these issues are improving because my hype has died down for the SP quite quickly even if my hype for the MP is still high, still enjoyed the SP modes especially in Halo 2.

"Prove it"
I think there's plenty of games when compared between the two that prove his point lol
Who said it was acceptable? It's acceptable to most since there is no other option higher than that being sold. If there was then it would be even less acceptable.
Imagine paying the same price for a game when there's a same version with better graphical fidelity. Man what a concept. Thankfully that's never the case with most third party games this gen on other consoles right?/s
"Market share has nothing to do with this relationship between Playstation and Qunatic Dream"
I never said that? Sony announcing exclusive after exclusive is the result of a high market share is what I used it in context with. How is it a "fanboy" lie? Am I not allowed as a consumer to enjoy what they have to offer from their continued success? Nothing about what I said is being a fanboy.
Look at least I'm not on any Halo articles tal...
Exclusive and exclusive after exclusive…this is ridiculous Sony! I am beyond excited for Detroit. I was taken away with the Kara demo years ago. It's so great to hear they kept it.
This is what the company holding a 50% market share gets its players, and I am beyond satisfied.
The King of racing is back!
It's so beautiful...
I shall continue with your analogy (that I agree with) lol
Uncharted is the fisherman while the new Tomb raider is the fish.
